Novel Updates

Students have finished reading their second novel using literature circles to discuss the books.  Their project for the most recent book includes a summary, opinion, comparison between two novels, and a creative cover.  These assignments help the students practice skills from the Arizona English Language Arts standards. 

We will begin a new novel soon.  Ask your child to tell you about the novel they are reading!

Standards Review
We are using a wonderful resource to review all of the reading standards for each grade level.  This will take about 4 weeks.  As we complete a short review lesson with practice, students are taking a short quiz showing their mastery of the skill.  This should ensure that all students meet or exceed on the reading portion of AIMS.  That is our goal!
